Sokne is absolutely fantastic! She's so talented. She took so much time on my nails and my 14yr old daughter's nails. She made her nails AMAZING for Halloween and her birthday (see pic of my daughter's black tip Halloween nails). Sokne also made us feel so comfortable. It's like she could read my mind. She knew exactly how I wanted my nails shaped, the pink-white ombré powder, Etc...I'm so thankful to have Soke as my nail technician. Excellent experience. read more

Elite Nail Spa - Cat approved! - Nail Salons Near Me - Asheville, North Carolina

They were really nice any did a great job on my daughter and I nails and toes! They actually engaged in conversation with my daughter and I instead of just having conversations amongst workers! read more

We are currently in town for the weekend & this was the second nail salon we stopped at. The first one turned us away because we didn't have an appointment so we found the next closest. I'm sooo glad we did, the service was amazing. The place wasn't crowded. The employees talked to us & treated us like human beings & after I was finished and waiting on my friend they let me relax in the massage chair & watch tv while I waited. They also asked us if we would like a refreshment. Overall a very professional, clean, enjoyable atmosphere read more

Worse pedicure! Didn't offer to turn on massage, no after painting dry, no leg massage and took a chunk out of my cuticle and didn't acknowledge it. ..and certainly didn't apologize. read more

I LOVE Elite Nail Spa. The staff are always sooo lovely and accommodating. I've been a patron here for years and haven't reviewed in fear of overcrowding my favorite nail spa. If you want it done right and not be overcharged, this is best place around. Pedicures are a delight and I'm completely addicted to the powder dip nails. read more

I went in and asked for an arm wax. They definitely do NOT do them but lied and said they did. They also charged $40. I've has it done for much less in 10-20 mins. They took an hour and my arms are all red and blustery. They eventually used 3 people because they had no idea what they were doing. They did it haphazardly so then there were patches undone everywhere which led to going over parts again. They did get the wax off with oil after and fixed some small parts with a tweezer. But it took about an hour. read more

I went to Elite before the virus and always was very happy with the professional, friendly service and the product. I cannot wait to return when the virus is less a threat! The owner and others are lovely people. I may return this month with a mask. This is the best nail salon I have found in Asheville! read more

My experience was very pleasant! I was offered a beverage and almost every nail tech said hello and asked how I was doing, even if they didn't actually do anything for me! I decided to try this spot out after a coworker showed me her nails, and after having a terribly overpriced and disappointing mani/pedi at city nails. This was the polar opposite experience. The nail tech was efficient and gave me a wonderful gel dip manicure in about an hour and a half (first half hour was just soaking my previous mani in acetone trying to get it off). I am so pleased, this will be my go to spot in Asheville for nails now! read more

Elite Nail Spa - GREAT MANICURE!!! - Nail Salons Near Me - Asheville, North Carolina

Very friendly staff, you could tell who the repeat visitors were! They were very busy but it did not affect the services I received from Kin and Rosa. The work ethic of young Sophia was beautiful to observe. I will be back. read more

I found this place a little difficult to find but it was very busy. I wasn't impressed with the wiping of the pedicure bowls which is why I am only giving four stars. I ike to see the sani bowl liners in the pedicure bowls. I noticed they only wiped the bowls out between clients. My pedicure is one of the best I ever had and looks great. It had been over a week and it still looks like the day I walked out. I wasn't as happy with the manicure but still a good manicure. I would return and give them another try. read more

I WAS a loyal customer to this nail salon for 2 years. Every three weeks, pink and whites with "Eric" and pedicures every 2 to 3 months. Not to mention my daughter when she was home from college and the countless referrals I have given. Let's just say, I LOVED this place. Today I showed up for my "scheduled" appointment at 9am. Eric greets me by saying "did you call yesterday". I said no, I scheduled with you on Monday when I was here with my daughter. He said no you didn't and implied I was lying. Why would I lie? He never apologized. He said, well I have another appointment at 9 o'clock, you'll have to come back later! No I won't, in fact, I will never come back. There are too many places willing to take care of me and my family to be treated like that. I would never expect preferential treatment, a simple I'm sorry would have fixed everything. Too bad for them. read more

This is my favorite, go-to nail salon in Asheville. Clean, courteous, and always quick

Tom just gave me the BEST Delux pedicure I have ever had! I love this place. They are always so friendly and accommodating. One of the best places to go in Asheville. read more

This salon was taken over by new owners January 1, 2012. The quality of the services have gone down and I am concerned how skilled they are in certain procedures. I continued going to this salon one month after the ownership change and was getting Gel Nail Fills from the new OWNER, but they changed the drill they use and the procedure was now uncomfortable.The last service I had done, also by the OWNER, was an eyebrow wax. The wax was too hot and not only did the OWNER burn my eyelids and between my brows, but she dripped the hot wax down the side of my face! There were even two spots on my cheeks, where she dripped the wax. I was very red when I left the shop and my eyelids were stinging. Within a couple of hours, my eyes swelled up and small blisters began to form, where the hot wax had been applied. It took about a week for my eyes to heal...but not until the skin peeled off. Thank goodness there are no lasting scars. I went back to the OWNER the day after the procedure and she did not even offer me my money back. Needless to say, after being a patron of this salon for six years, I will never go back...and I will never have anyone do an eyebrow wax on me again! read more

I have been getting manicures and pedicures at Elite Nail Spa for a couple years now. I have been getting manis and pedis for years, and this place is the best! I especially like Carolyn (the owner) to do my manicure. She really knows what she is doing and is a perfectionist. All the techs who have done my pedicure have been excellent. They all take their time and do a great job! read more

Came to this salon after driving around and stopping at a few other run down looking places. They were very friendly and did an amazing job on my manicure and pedicure. The leg/foot massage I got was the best i've ever had. Definitely get a pedicure here. You won't regret it. read more

I've been here a couple of times, and for the price I'm a huge fan! It's a fun environment and they take good care of you. Awesome people, place! read more

Not my usual nail place but got a gift for it so gave it a try. Very pleased. If you want to be pampered and get a great pedicure do their deluxe. My feet and legs felt amazing after. Definitely recommend! read more

I am new to the Asheville area, and I am looking for my "go-to" place for a mani/pedi. Paul did an awesome job! My big toenails sometimes feel ingrown, and he made them feel good! He has great attention to detail, and the massage was wonderful, too. I also had a leg/calf wax (done by a woman), which was super-thorough. My only 2 suggestions: It would be nice if they offered the plastic liners for the pedicure bowls. And, to make the waxing area a little more comfortable. read more

I absolutely love this nail spa! The owners are so friendly and service is great! I wont be going anywhere else!

Thanks Elite Nail Spa for treating my wife right! She loved her experience there and we couldn't be happier with the price. The staff is great and pleasant to be around. Will recommend! read more

They were so incredibly nice! Me and my boyfriend just dropped in for a random pedicure and they did awesome and were so friendly! Would definitely go again or recommend it. They also stay open later than other salons! read more

They do not know what they are doing. They talked me into an organic powder dipped manicure. I came out looking deformed. They kept blaming me saying my nails were too short. ?? They charged me $85 and told me to come back tomorrow and they would remove it for free. I went to a different salon and had them remove it. They were appalled and told me whoever did this to me did not know what they were doing. read more

My favorite nail salon! I will always come here if I have the option. Friendly service, always great conversation. They always remember me and my friends and what we like, remember any troubles I'm having in my personal life. Very kind, and always great nails! read more

I had a wonderful mani and pedi done. The people were so nice and did not rush! Great massage. Saw the comment above and was wondering if you are on Retin A. The dermatologist does not recommend any one with thin skin to have waxing procedures done. You look like you are on Obagi. Just curious? Love the place, and highly recommend it to Everyone. read more

The first time i was in the salon, the service was very good, included the waxing . It was amazing.

I wasn't very happy with the services. The pedicure was okay. The shaping of my nails and toes were not done well at all. Overall it was an extremely disappointing experience. read more

The worst manicure of my life. Slow service..took two hours for a mani pedi. The youngest nail tech is rude...spend your money elsewhere.

Caroline the owner of elite nails gave me a pedicure. I now have a fungus that I cannot get rid of. I would suggest that people stay away from here because I don't think they clean their plays very well. read more

Last time I'll ever give this business my money. After waiting 45 minutes, the guy rushed through my gel manicure to help someone else. I'm not one to complain but this was the worst manicure I've ever had and seen. I told him my concerns and he proceeded to "fix" it by filing down his horrendous work. After I told him I didn't want him to fix it because I didn't have time, he rudely waved his arms and told me I didn't have to pay as he walked away. The manager was also sitting right there ignoring the commotion and didn't have the courtesy to engage in the situation. I still ended up paying some portion. Worst service I've ever received. I highly recommend not coming to this place when it's busy or even at all. read more

Not really friendly, hurt me and made me bleed and pretty much made light of it. Then started talking trash in Vietnamese. Very aggressive with the micro plane. Feet sore for days. Not a good experience. read more

This was, by far, the worst shellac manicure I have ever received. The lady rushed through and was very rough. She was so hurried that my nails look as if they were painted by a child. I complained about how they looked and her response was, "look good." The man in the salon was quite rude as well. Every time I would try and ask a question, he would yell, "pick color! Pick color!" I will never return and I suggest you save your money and go elsewhere. read more

First I'm going to state that I am very appalled. I have been growing my left thumb nail out for 10 months and the tiny Vietnamese woman doing my nails simply asked me if I wanted it I cut I responded with no its my favorite nail. She filed my nail all the way down to my skin and it is in a complete 60 degree angle. My "trophy wife" pink polish is only layered twice and is still see through to my nail. It took 30 minutes to get these manicures and when asked to be gentle due to nerve damage in my partners thumb he didn't acknowledge it and continued to pain her and be fiercely rude. The two workers used knowing a langue we didn't just to discriminate us right in front of us. My thumb nail no longer taps on my phone screen while texting, not to mention the over price of $28. Also my partner having to leave without the lotion massage and not even getting a dollar discount. I will never attend this disgustingly rude, and untalented "salon". I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW I CAN GET MY 28$ AND MOST IMPORTANTLY MY LEFT THUMB NAIL BACK. read more
